Default Need Help Identifying Pig Tail for Oil Temp Sensor

This is all that was left of the Oil Temp Sensor wiring harness after it snagged during my header install...


This attached to P/N 12608814 which is mounted on the oil filter adaptor on the driver side down by the rear of the pan.

How are these connectors "identified"? I don't see anything in the Service Manual that calls them out - but who's to say I'm looking in the right place?

It would be handy to have some kind of part number to cross-reference the various electrical connectors somehow... At any rate, does anyone know where I could get one of these and any part number to go with it?

Thanks!

Jeff

you need a new "pig tail" will come with the connector and about 10 inshes of wire. if you have a junkyard close by. go look and the gm cars and trucks and you will find it.

Check to see if it is the same connector as the AIT sensor connector.
Air Temp Sensor IAT Splice GM 12102620.
